Character is guided by the nature of things most often envisaged. For the soul tales on the color of its ideas.
- Marcus Aurelius
The Elementals:
This site is a sampling of the "subterranean worlds," of collage and mixed media artist Charles Farrell. Creative source material draws from several themes including classical painting composition, the inescapability of sex and death, film noir, and alchemical symbolism.
All work is obsessively created by hand in my studio. My primary medium is collage and photomontage on both paper and canvas. I use a variety of mixed media elements to complete each piece including pencil, ink, acrylic paint and washes.
